Read this if you want to peer over a real detective’s shoulder as they go about their day to day business of solving crime. The author is a serving police officer; she lives the humour, the camaraderie, the working until silly o’clock, the gutty, gritty and gratifying times when the final piece of the jigsaw is put into place (apart from the occasional annoyingly stubborn missing piece)… consequentially so does DC Nina Foster, the pivotal character in this tenacious and assured crime story. This is the second in the series, so if you do read this first you will definitely want to backtrack to ‘Never Forget’ to fill in a few gaps.
Remember, Remember, this second book in the DC Nina Foster series (now optioned for a major TV drama) is a taut and gripping police procedural crime novel. Returning to work after recovering from a serious injury, the feisty and determined policewoman is initially assigned to a desk job to keep her out of harm's way. But as she re-visits the investigation of the infamous 1964 Wickerstead Valley train crash, she finds new evidence that might link that fatal accident to a current spate of heroin-related deaths. Tracking down witnesses, she comes face to face with the notorious Rumbly family and uncovers a network of drug dealers who will stop at nothing to protect their criminal empire. With danger mounting at work, Nina's mental and physical capacities are tested to their limits; her home life begins to suffer and she struggles to make time for the new man in her life, Bill Harrison. Brilliantly plotted and fast-paced, Remember, Remember confirms Nina Foster as a heroine for our times and cements Lisa Cutts' reputation as an author of gripping fiction straight from the frontline of modern policing.
